    Where did our heroes go? This week we saw Anthony Joshua survive two knockdowns to beat Kristian Prenga, and Tim Tszyu defeat Errol Spence Jr in a sad summer pay-per-view. Spence retired after the main event, and Joshua will move into a fight with Tyson Fury, who also fought this weekend (and also looked awful). We talk about Stephen Fulton, the "Cool Boy," missing weight and getting his fight canceled against Liam Wilson, as cool people do. Hamzah Sheeraz looked mid against Simon Zachenhuber. Sheeraz won a vacant title, but are we starting to wonder about his potential and clear favoritism toward his career?  Also, Josh Kelly got his nose busted up, winning a 12-round decision over Caoimhin Agyarko. This week, we have one major card. DAZN in partnership with TNT Sports will return with a lightweight bout between Lamont Roach Jr and William Zepeda. In the co-feature,  Raymond Muratalla will make the first defense of his IBF lightweight title against Robson Conceicao. Other notable bouts include welterweight Raul Curiel versus Quinton Randall, junior middleweight Charles Conwell versus Paul Kroll, and middleweight Fabian Guzman versus Aaron Coley. Joel Iriarte and Dylan Capetillo are prospects featured on this card as well.0:00 Intro1:07 Josh Kelly5:30 Hamzah Sheeraz9:45 Anthony Joshua-Tyson Fury22:20 Tim Tszyu vs Errol Spence34:34 Lamont Roach Jr-William Zepeda41:00 Undercard

    In this episode, Lukie and (Jason) Lagendorf talk about the return of Errol Spence Jr., who faces Tim Tszyu in Australia on pay-per-view. Three years ago, this would have been massive; now it just is what it is. A solid fight, but a lot of lingering “What ifs?” Does Spence still have it? (He hasn't fought since the Terence Crawford fight)Can Tszyu absorb punishment from a high-level fighter? The answers we don't know.An undercard bout with Jermall Charlo is now off, as he couldn't obtain a visa. Stephen Fulton's official lightweight debut against Liam Wilson will serve as the co-feature, with Australian talent rounding out the rest of the card. Then, we have two high-profile names back in action.Tyson Fury will fight Mariusz Wach in Thailand. As of now, I don't think they have announced how to watch it. Also, on pay-per-view, Anthony Joshua is facing Kristian Prenga. Is it safe to say Joshua is in the unserious part of his career? The pay-per-view card is shockingly thin. WBO super middleweight champ Hamzah Sheeraz will face Simon Zachenhuber. Zachenhuber lost to Pawel August on the previous Fury fight card, but August is buried on the undercard facing Jacob Bank, the man who stopped William Scull. Make it make sense. IBF welterweight champ Josh Kelly returns against Caoimhin Agyarko, which is a good fight, and Ukrainian Olympic gold medalist Oleksandr Khyzhniak will fight. He is more Serhii Bohachuk than he is Lomachenko. Nishant Dev is always a nice treat to see on a card as well. Also, on Sunday at Zuffa Boxing, Edgar Berlanga will make his promotional debut against Steven Butler. Richardson Hitchins will face Ricardo Salas, not an easy debut, and middleweight Sergiy Derevyanchenko will open the main telecast against Jalil Hackett. The undercard is solid with Otto Wallin facing Vladyslav Sirenko, and the promotional debut of Dominique Francis. A good 50-50 fight between Arnold Gonzalez and Emiliano Moreno, and as always, featherweight Troy Nash Jr is must-see TV as he faces unbeaten Ethan Perez.This week, we saw Diego Pacheco stop Immanuwel Aleem. Now, we ask more questions… For my mailbag, I was asked if Pacheco looked different than when he fought Trevor McCumby. Lazily, I will ask Dakota. Buddy McGirt now trains Pacheco; did we see a difference? People seem divided on Pacheco – can we make sense of it all?Also on the undercard, Andy Cruz stopped Abraham Montoya in three rounds and appears headed to the junior lightweight division. Featherweight Albert Gonzalez stopped Aaron Alameda in two rounds. WOW! Also, Bruno Rios and Saul Sanchez had a classic that might get forgotten. You can visit The Good Fight here: http://TheGoodFight12.Substack.comTimestamps0:00 intro and thoughts on The Good Fight11:15 Too many pay-per-views ( Joshua and Spence vs. Tszyu)17:35 Spence vs. Tszyu30:32 Joshua and Tyson Fury fight previews37:24 Why I am mad for Pawel August 46:40 Thoughts on Diego Pacheco59:50 Bruno Rios vs. Saul Sanchez 01:03:50 Zuffa Boxing thoughts01:20:08 Andy Ruiz releases a rap song

    In this episode, Lukie and Dakota start with the news. Four-division titleholder Shakur Stevenson signed with Zuffa Boxing. With rumors that Oleksandr Usyk and Devin Haney may sign with Zuffa, is the takeover imminent? What are the guys' thoughts on this? Then, we shift to PBC announcing a deal with DAZN, which would have seemed unheard of before this year. Is this a direct response to Zuffa Boxing? They announced a few fights (without official fight dates), but in August WBA welterweight champ Rolando Romero will face Teofimo Lopez. The guys give early thoughts on this fight.The guys recap a very light week of boxing. Murat Gassiev stopped late-sub Peter Kadiru in six rounds. Kadiru filled in for Gassiev's original opponent, 2016 French Olympic gold medalist Tony Yoka, but was outgunned. Also, Artem Suslenkov stopped former contender Joe Joyce in what should be Joyce's last pro fight. The ending was very sad. Then, we look ahead. Another light week of boxing.Super middleweight Diego Pacheco faces Immanuwel Aleem. It is a DAZN main event bout, and the return of boxing to the Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California. Lightweight Andy Cruz will face Abraham Montoya, after his original opponent, Albert Bell, fought Abdullah Mason on short notice earlier this month. Middleweight Frank Espinoza and lightweight Sammy Contreras Jr are notable prospects to watch, but a good 50-50 fight to watch for is Saul Sanchez vs. unbeaten Bruno Rios. Heavyweight Leo Atang is someone I keep wondering just how good he is, too. In the U.K., welterweight Harlem Eubank is in tough against David Papot, and on ProBox TV an assortment of fights including Bryan Flores vs. Jonathan Navarro, junior middleweight Kevin Anton vs. Vladimir Hernandez, and Charly Suarez vs. Manuel "Tino" Avila.Timestamps:0:00 Shakur to Zuffa Boxing12:03 PBC to DAZN20:55 Teofimo Lopez vs Rolando Romero29:30 Joe Joyce, Murat Gassiev40:00 Diego Pacheco returns46:40 undercard56:37 Other stuff

    The guys start by talking about a potential Shakur Stevenson-Devin Haney rumored bout. Then, they talk about Chris Billam-Smith versus Ryan Rozicki, which is by far Zuffa Boxing's best fight to date. The guys are split on opinions around Zuffa, and we talk about roughly six months into the new boxing entities' rise in the sport. We also talk about light heavyweight Albert Ramirez's split decision over Lerrone Richards, and a bit on junior lightweight Josh Padley's win over Aqib Fiaz, which was a decent domestic match. IBF flyweight titleholder Masamichi Yabuki defeated Rene Calixto. Is Yabuki the forgotten pound-for-pound level talent? Andrew Moloney defeated Willibaldo Garcia Perez to win the IBF junior bantamweight title. Also, Michael Angeletti defeated Kenneth Llover in a bantamweight bout with title implications, and in “the bad boy bout,” John Riel Casimero stopped Luis Nery in four rounds. Then, we switch gears to history – Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez looks to further his legacy as he aims to be a three-division world champion, as he faces WBA bantamweight champion, Antonio Vargas. Rodriguez is currently No.3 on Lukie's pound-for-pound list, and even higher on others. A win here puts him in the running for a potential chance to become undisputed against Moloney, or even a mega-fight against Naoya Inoue. Also, on the card, women's IBF lightweight champ Elif Nur Turhan will face Gabriela Tellez, and Arturo Cardenas will rematch Jordan Martinez in a junior featherweight bout. Other bouts of note, Sunday Salita Promotions returns with Jonathan “Bomba” Gonzalez vs. Abraham Perez. It is a good bout, with Brandon Moore, Joshua Pagan, and others featured on the DAZN broadcast. Another MVP card will take place with Oshae Jones rematching Elia Carranza, with her IBF title on the line, and a good local fight, Bruce Seldon Jr. vs. Josh Popper, will happen in New Jersey.Timestamps0:00 Intro1:20 Devin Haney vs Shakur Stevenson7:23 CBS-Ryan Rozicki19:23 Casimero-Nery25:00 Bam Rodriguez-Antonio Vargas33:00 undercard39:30 La Bomba Gonzalez-Abraham Perez46:00 MVP card

Torrez has always been seen as a small heavyweight and Sanchez is the great unknown after being stopped by Agit Kabayel. The conversation evolves into Perez's thoughts on limitations on Cuban boxing, while unpacking some of the issues from a marketing standpoint fighters face.

Tom gives his thoughts on this. Then, we talk about Hrgovic-Allen. Why was it a thing? What is the sentiment about Allen that gives him so many chances? Also, Top Rank's debut on DAZN…thoughts? Plus, junior welterweight Keyshawn Davis won his rematch against Nahir “Woo” Albright, BUT he missed weight for the second time in three fights. This is not to be overlooked; yes, it was smaller in this instance, but it is a trend. What is bigger in your opinion, the fight result or the weigh-in story? Also, Brian Norman Jr gets a quick second-round stoppage win over Josh Wagner. Yan Santana won a close (and debatable) unanimous decision victory over Cristian Cruz. Oh, and Kelvin Davis won an uninspired split decision over Pete Dobson. On the way out, we talk about welterweight Paddy Donovan and his win over Karen Chukhadzhian.
